Get More From Your Digital Camera
Sat, Feb 28, 2026 - 10:00 am-1:00 pm
Morton Arboretum Thornhill Center, Room B
Want to feel confident using your camera instead of guessing? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn what your camera’s buttons, dials, and settings actually do—and how to use them to make better photographs. You’ll also learn how to “tell your camera what to do” (instead of the other way around), and you’ll f inally understand why your camera behaves the way it does when you press the shutter.
